Joel is one of our favorite riding buddies of all time. He's had a ton of old bikes since I've known him, but I've never seen him on one that was actually totally finished. He was sitting on this nice old '48 frame and engine for a while and decided this would be the one. He reached out to several small shops for help, JD at Flying Monkey Fabrication, Kim Boyle at BCM, Slim's Fab and Bob at Temecula Motorcycle Service all pitched in on this thing. In the end, Joel decided that crusty old bikes are more his style and this one's gonna have to go before he scratches it. It's for sale right now on eBay, or you can hit up the old bike broker otto@biltwellinc.com directly if you are interested.
